Requirement for Consent

This section and the following subsections will therefore concern themselves with teaching the reader how discern between 4 legislation which imposes an affirmative obligation and liability, and that which is merely “directory in nature” and of no 5 obligatory force IN YOUR SPECIFIC CASE. We will prove that the origin of all civil law in America is informed, 6 voluntary consent and that where there is no consent, there is no enforceable civil legal right to anything. This is a very 7 important subject, because it will help you to modify your behavior with the goal of freeing you from obeying many legal 8 enactments of your servant government which: 9

1.

Are not in fact “law” in your specific case.

10

2. Are simply “directory in nature” and of no obligatory force. 11 3. Are “special law” or “private law” that apply only to a particular group of persons and things that you are not a part of. 12 4. Are “private law” disguised as “public law” to deceive you into obedience. 13 5. Apply only to government employees or public offices and not to the general public as a whole. 14

By helping you to discern what is “obligatory” and what is “directory”, we don’t mean to suggest any of the following: 15

1. That the Internal Revenue Code or the Social Security Act are not “law”. They absolutely are for those domiciled on 16 federal territory who have consented to occupy and lawfully occupy a public office in the federal and not state 17 government and thereby become franchisees called “taxpayers” as defined in 26 U.S.C. §7701(a)(14) . 18 2. That there are no “persons” subject to them. 19 3. That Internal Revenue Code, Subtitle A doesn’t apply to anyone. Rather, the group of persons who are subject to it is 20 far more limited than most people realize. 21 4. That statutory “taxpayers” as defined in 26 U.S.C. §7701(a)(14) are not subject to the Internal Revenue Code. 22 5. That there are no statutory “taxpayers”. 23 In covering this important subject, we will learn to distinguish between “public law” and “private law”, and we will 24 demonstrate their relationship to “positive law”. We will also hopefully give you the words and tools to argue these issues 25 in a court of law so that you avoid many of the legal traps, or what the U.S. Supreme Court calls “springes”, that many 26 freedom lovers commonly fall into. 27

Public v. Private law

As the Great IRS Hoax , Form #11.302 says in sections 3.3 and 4.3.3, the purpose of law, like the purpose of government, is 29 to protect us from harming each other, in fulfillment of the second great commandment to love our neighbor found in the 30 Bible in Matt. 22:39. The only means by which law can afford that protection is to: 31

1.

Prohibit and punish harmful behaviors.

32

2. Leave men otherwise free to regulate and fully control their own lives. 33

Thomas Jefferson agreed with the above conclusions when he said: 34

"With all [our] blessings, what more is necessary to make us a happy and a prosperous people? Still one thing more, fellow citizens--a wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close

the circle of our felicities."

In the above sense, law is a negative concept : It provides a remedy for past harm but has no moral authority to prevent or 41 promote or mandate any other type of behavior, including the public good. De jure law acts only upon those who institute 42 past injury. When it acts upon FUTURE conduct or in a PREVENTIVE rather than CORRECTIVE role, it requires the 43 CONSENT of those who are affected by its preventive role. Otherwise, involuntary servitude and theft of property is the 44 result, where “rights” are property. 45
